51 Vol. 1 - by Curt Pires (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The lighter side of classified black sites? 51 is the perfect blend of workplace comedy, humanist drama, and larger than life comic book storytelling. Just don't let the government know!

When the president's black sheep son is caught on a bender in Malibu, he's sent off to Area 51 to work in the warehouse as discipline. It doesn't take long for him and his coworkers to mess up. When they do they mess up big--and all the secrets, horrors and wonders housed at the black site are now leaking into the world and wrecking havoc. Their task: to put the genies back in the bottle and bury the stories, and to do so they'll have to contend with aliens, superheroes, and all manners of experimental weaponry.
